For the last two weeks I am constantly getting notifications from my antivirus about attempts of using my webcam. I have always chosen "Block access", often after checking "remember for this aplication". But I am still getting these notificatiosn about every day. There are two diffrent notifications for two diffrent processes:
- C:Windows\System32\taskhostw.exe
- C:Windows\System32\DeviceConsensus.exe
What are these processes, and is it safe to allow access?
Here's the translation of the polish print screens below:
